The women hockey team celebration was a very brash and arrogant style of celebration in front of cameras on top of official Olympic hockey ring ice. Plus these celebrations occur in locker rooms so it's a bit of abnormal scene.

It's not a big deal at all and they have the right to celebrate and party hard, but I can see why the latter will create disapproval thoughts. Has nothing to do with the sport, or the genders, it's just the way they celebrated and the spot to do it at.
Hockey teams coming back out onto the ice after the rink is empty to celebrate is very common. This wasn't abnormal at all.
